Skydad / The Lunch Club, I'm glad your reading could be spiced up at my expense. I have to say, though, that I resent being accused of not having a life. If you had read my posts and my profile, you would know that I lead an extremely full life. In addition to a demanding job, I have a wife and three boys that keep me very busy. I am a Boy Scout Scoutmaster and assist with Little League. As a matter of fact, my geocaching time has been severely limited recently due to so many other demands. As a matter of fact, that was the subject of my complaint about the pirate. I was unwillingly drug into mess. I had parted with my precious time and some cash to place a cache for you to enjoy. Now, because of this fool, I have to part with more time and more cash to restore my cache. I might have found it fun too if it happened to someone else and I didn't have to deal with it. Please put yourself in the shoes of another before judging them. CacheLess -----Original Message----- From: az-geocaching-admin@listserv.azgeocaching.com [mailto:az-geocaching-admin@listserv.azgeocaching.com] On Behalf Of skydad Sent: Saturday, May 10, 2003 8:50 AM To: listserv@azgeocaching.com Subject: [Az-Geocaching] Cache Pirate Revisited Just a quick comment on the pirate - The cache pirate has been the only thing truly fun on these thread for months - By teams responses you can so easily tell who has a life and who needs to find one. Although not in the normal real of geocaching and not one we approve of - it sure spiced things up for a few weeks - If the pirate is ever uncovered there is a few beer and margaritas waiting him/her compliments of The Lunch Club. Pirate - Should of waited till the Pirates of the Caribbean movie came out - could of been a great theme cache.
